Casey declared on Sunday that he wanted to do a Halloween craft. So we headed outside and gathered some small tree branches, painted them black, painted an old plant pot purple and made some fabric flowers. I added some stretched-out-batting to make cobwebs for a spooky look and the black ribbon for a not so spooky look (I didn't want to scare any children with the spookiness). The shiny purple pot is my favorite part and the poorly crafted flowers are my least favorite.

How cute are these little booties. Pirate booties. Get it? I was perusing the fat quarters at Joann's, like I usually do, and found the red and black stripes and thought they would make super cute shoes. Five minutes later I saw the skull fabric; perfect.

A Little About Us...

We began with a mutual love of aprons. Having never sewn at all, a couple of us decided to get together and try our hand at sewing an apron. And the Secret Stitch Club was formed (we got our name from Maren's husband who sarcastically asked us one time if we put a secret stitch in our aprons). Almost two years and dozens of aprons later, we still meet weekly to sew, chat, share ideas, eat, and laugh. We share our latest creations and newest inspirations on this blog. Thanks for visiting us!
